Hi there,
Since there is now an officiel Sonoff app, I’d like to transfer a few existing devices from the " SONOFF Zigbee" app to the official Sonoff app (with my thanks for the community developpers for all the work they have done on the SONOFF Zigbee app of course).
Is there a way to transfer a device to another app without having to exclude and reinclude all devices, and with keeping all existing flows? (assuming those flow actions/triggers are the same in both apps of course).
Maybe it’s possible with the repair script from @martijnpoppen. But I’m not sure.
I assume it’s only possible if the devices use exactly the same capabilities in both apps.
Therefore, I recommend that you ask in the linked topic.
May I ask why you want to change the app?
“Official” doesn’t mean that the app is programmed by Sonoff itself. The “Official” Sonoff app is just called “Official” because the programmer pays a certain amount of money to Athom every year, I think it’s about €100. So it’s a bit like the blue tick on Twitter/X.
However, “Official” apps are also available for Homey Cloud, which isn’t the case with the community apps. I don’t know whether there are any other differences.
Btw, the “Official” Sonoff App supports 17 devices, the test version off the SONOFF Zigbee App supports 22 devices:
Thanks a lot for the answers! As I thought, the related flow issues seems to be the trickiest part.
And indeed, @DirkG , I hadn’t really understood what “official” app actually meant.
I guess I’ll give it a thought then.
You know, sometimes it’s hard to stick to the “If it ain’t broke, dont fix it” mantra
